|September 2022
On July 25, 2022, Healthcare Triangle, Inc (HCT), a healthcare information technology company focused on cloud innovative solutions, data science, and data analytics platforms for the healthcare and life sciences industry announced the launch of its Singapore unit with a focus to bolster digital healthcare in Singapore and across the Asia Pacific.
‘Healthcare Triangle Singapore’ is set to invest $25 million at Singapore headquarters and aims to create over 500 jobs in the next five years. In an interaction with BioSpectrum Asia Suresh Venkatachari, Chairman and CEO, HCT shares more on the business planning in Asia Pacific with Singapore as the regional hub. Edited excerpts;
How do you describe the vision and mission toward bolstering digital healthcare in Asia Pacific with the launch of Healthcare Triangle in Singapore?
The APAC region is currently witnessing an increase in the adoption of digitalisation in healthcare and research institutions. As such, Healthcare Triangle’s entry into the region couldn’t be timelier. The growing need for virtual healthcare, clinical information systems (CIS), and electronic medical records (EMR) will propel digital healthcare platform adoption.
Through our platform solutions, we support healthcare organisations, healthcare insurance companies, pharmaceutical, and life sciences, biotech companies, and medical device manufacturers in their efforts to improve data management, develop analytical insights into their operations, and deliver measurable clinical, financial, and operational improvements.
Singapore will be our APAC regional headquarters as an R&D and sales hub. HCT views its all-new Singapore headquarters as a launch pad to extend its services across APAC. One of Singapore’s Tech Parks will host our active operations. We are liaising with Singapore Economic Board Development (EDB) to set up the innovation hub.
Could you share the investments and fund allocation involved in this expansion plan?

Collaborative R&D: Partnerships shaping the future of biopharma
Biotechs and pharma companies face rising costs of drug development, depleting R&D pipelines and diminishing returns on investment. By joining forces and exploring collaborative R&D partnerships it is possible to overcome these challenges. In addition to sharing risks, they share the potential rewards when their assets move further into clinical development or come to the market.

Quantum Computing: Future of diagnostics is being coded today
A silent revolution is being built at the intersection of biology and quantum physics. After decades of pushing the boundaries of diagnostics with advanced imaging and AI, we are now approaching a hard computational wall. For complex conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and many cancers, the interacting variables of genomics, proteomics, and real-world patient data are simply too vast for classical computers to master. This limitation caps the ability to move from merely spotting correlations to uncovering true causation. Unlike traditional AI, quantum computing can simulate underlying physical systems to derive precise solutions. The transition from correlational analysis to causal simulation will enable a more valuable and advanced frontier in diagnostics.
